         Here's another reminder of the message I posted
November 30 for those of us whose memories are fading.  :-)

         This has long been in our guidelines (below) but I've let it slide
for awhile.  Now I'm seeing many unedited replies to replies to replies.
If you choose to do that, your posts will simply be deleted without any
notification.  Yes, some have unlimited bandwidth but it's plain and simple
mental laziness not to spend a few seconds editing rather than top-posting
to all previous replies.

The choice is yours...either:

1. Edit previous relevant comments only (preferable), OR
2. Don't include ANY previous comments at all (next best), OR
3. Don't be surprised when your posts don't show up.  ;-)

Thanks in advance for your help in following our guidelines!

73, Bill W4ZV

"Be considerate of other subscribers who have bandwidth limitations
and edit posts for succinctness (include ONLY relevant excerpts of
previous posts). NOTE: Top-posting complete previous messages is
not allowed...please either edit relevant parts of prior messages or
delete them entirely. When responding to a specific individual, think
carefully before copying to the other 1174 of us on the reflector."
